Wonder of a mummy
I enjoyed watching the unwrapping of Mummy 1770, and wondered about this mystery person who lived in 1000 BCE in the Egyptian New Kingdom. I am glad that they provided this color film documentation of this event. I hope, though, that they do not unwrap all the mummies in the world! But I imagine that that would take forever!
Segments
At the University of Manchester (England) an Egyptian mummy is unwrapped surgically by doctors in a modern surgical theater.
